App Releases • GLTools (Graphics Optimizer) v1.03 With Plugin

GLTools is a custom OpenGL driver (proxy), that is compatible with any known OpenGLES 2.0-compatible GPU + ARM processor, x86 processors are not supported (Galaxy Tab 3 for example). If you still don't understand, what this app is, the closest known analog is Chainfire3D.

Features list:

- Change resolution and rendering bitness in any app, even if it doesn't support that by default.

- Change GPU name and enjoy enhanced graphics even on a noname low-end GPU.

- Take full control over textures: now you can decompress/recompress them (even if your GPU doesn't support that texture format) and resize. Note that decompression feature is available only if you'll install a plugin (internet is required to do that)

- Optimize shaders on-the-fly for optimal performance (the same optimizer is used in Unity3D engine by default)

- Measure gained performance with a nice onscreen FPS counter (or you can output FPS information to Logcat if you are a pro)

GLTools is 100% safe if you have a custom recovery installed (and you didn't disable backup in GLTools install dialog), if you'll find it non-working, you can just flash uninstall_gltools.zip in recovery and email me with details (or request a refund).

Tested on:

- HTC One X

- Nexus 7 2013

- LG G2

Warnings/side-effects:

First of all, please do not restore backups of this app data (with Titanium Backup, etc), I'll add a feature to export/backup/share settings later, for now it can result in shuffle of your settings. The same for app uninstalling, disable custom preferences for app before removal.

Legal information:

User is responsible to make sure that any plugins he uses are legal to use. All texture plugins (except for Default) are written by independent developers and are placed on a 3rd-party webserver (except for Default which is builtin), which has nothing to do with me, a GLTools author, except for that I provide a simple in-app browser to install them (as all we know, browser creators have nothing to do with any abusive Internet content, the same thing here).

What's New:

It is now nearly 100% stable, but if doubt - contact author for any questions! (n0n3m4dev@gmail.com)
